There is no way that they are celiac friendly. When they spoon out the food they tap the tortilla and aren’t trained at all.
No
They did an awesome job! It was really busy but they didn't bat an eye when I told them I needed gluten free. They wiped down the line, asked me what toppings I wanted then got fresh spoons or pans of food and changed gloves after washing hands. It took them several minutes but they treated me very well. Highly recommend!
This is the BEST Chipotle location. When I ask them to change their gloves, their first question was "do you have a food allergy?" I tell them yes, even though I have Celiac, for the sake of explaining myself. They take off old gloves, wash hands, put on new gloves, ask another staff member to wipe down the line, the person makes my bowl all the way through and doesn't let anyone else touch my bowl. They even offer to bring out new cheese and lettuce that hasn't been reached into with contaminated gloves. The icing on the cake -- they THANKED me for letting them know about my needs. These people are rock stars.
Yes
Chipotle does not have a gluten free menu but instead has a list of gluten-containing ingredients to avoid. Cross-contamination is a concern, however, so let the person taking your order know that you are gluten free and if you need them to take the proper precautions.
From their website: "If you avoid gluten, don't eat our flour tortillas. If you are highly sensitive to gluten and would like us to change our gloves, just let us know at the start of your order. You should be aware items containing corn, including corn tortillas (chips, soft corn, and crispy corn tortillas) and corn salsa, may have a small amount of gluten from potentially co-mingling with gluten-containing grains in the field."
My favorite chipotle! If I order on the app, I label my meal as “name + gluten allergy”. The staff always changes their gloves before handling my bowl. I’ve never gotten sick!

We asked to eat Gluten Free. The person in charge along with line workers changed gloves, wiped surfaces, got out new serving utensils, got all fresh food needed for our orders and made our bowls. We appreciated their thoroughness and concern.

Yay for the Westview Chipotle in Frederick! I told the woman behind the counter that I have Celiac's and she immediately changed her gloves and personally handled my order thru the entire serving line.
I should have waited a few hours before giving my review. Even though the woman who served me did her best, there was still cross contamination. A couple hours later I had bloating and was running for a bathroom. Sorry but Chipotle is not Celiac Friendly.

Let me start off by saying, WOW. Never have I ever felt co fident in ordering from a non dedicated place before but they employees were EXTREMELY knowledgeable. I asked what they are gf procedures are and right away the nice employe wiped off the counter and without me having to ask he got all the ingredients fresh from the back with clean gloves and a new bowl. He was super nice and friendly, I will 100% be back here again. Seriously this is the place to go if your in the area.

I have eaten at several places of this establishment and they have always changed their gloves and utensils if you ask them to get your stuff from a fresh bin they will never had a problem at any of them but make sure you let them know.
